1 iujmda» m. VOICES OF EXPERIENCE
It is no wonder that dealers
and collectors have had trouble
recognizing southern furniture.
Cabinetmakers came from Eng
land, Scotland, Germany, and
France and often headed away
from the East coast, to the less
developed areas in the south.
Each brought influences from
their coun
try of heri
tage.

Furniture made in the South
during the 18th and early 19th
centuries has waited a long time
for recognition. Not only did it
have its’ own distinctive high
style found in wealthy southern
cities such as Charleston and
Baltimore, but even in the rural
backcountry touches of quality
cabinetry emerged. Often with a
folk art quality.
A traveling exhibit, “Furniture
of the American South
1680-1830” on loan from the Co
lonial Williamsburg Collection
can be seen at the Mint Museum
in Charlotte, N.C. until the end
of January. The entire, perma
nent collection is at Colonial Wil
liamsburg, Virginia.
CLUES; Before the American
Revolution the greatest influence
on style and design was in Vir
ginia and the coastal colonies.
Much of the interpretation de
pended on the creativity of the
cabinet maker. Sometimes styles
were combined. Usually the
maker remains a mystery, while
his country of origin is obvious.
An example is a drop front desk
in the exhibt. The initials “W.H.”
are on the prospect door along
with the date “August/the 5.
1789. This is one of 30 objects
found in northeastern North Car
olina with his initials. The clue to
origin is found in inlaid, ebonized
floral ornaments; a German tech
nique. Mint curator Barbara A.
